Burden listed at the No. 1 overall pick in PFN’s first 2025 Mock Draft. We’ll be seeing him on Sunday’s for a long time after he’s finished with Mizzou.

“Frank Reich’s Panthers will always be restricted as long as they don’t have a No. 1 WR to build around. Luckily, just a year after Marvin Harrison Jr. hit the fold, Luther Burden is in the pipeline as the next near-generational WR prospect.

Burden was a consensus five-star recruit in high school, who logged 83 catches for 1,197 yards and eight touchdowns in 2023.

At 5’11” and 208 pounds, he’s a hyper-dense three-level threat with superlative explosiveness, speed, and twitches. He’s already a nuanced separator, and he has the play strength to succeed in all phases.

With his frame, RAC ability, throttle control, and rare catching instincts and body control, he’s fielded separate comparisons to Deebo Samuel, Ja’Marr Chase, and Amari Cooper. But all you need to know is: He’s good. Really good. And he’s exactly what Young needs at WR.“
